Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. appeared to caution the Democratic Party Sunday against automatically naming Vice President Kamala Harris its new presidential nominee.
President Joe Biden announced his decision to withdraw from the race in a letter shared to X Sunday. The president noted while he always intended to continue his campaign, he has realized stepping aside is best for both the Democratic Party and the U.S. as a whole.
In a follow-up post, Biden also formally endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris to replace him at the top of the Democratic ticket.
Kennedy wrote on X shortly after the announcement that he applauds Biden's decision. He added that the president's "progressive deterioration" and "abandonment of Democratic Party principles" are what motivated him to launch his own presidential campaign.
Yet the response of the DNC [Democratic National Committee] was to try and hide President Biden’s degeneration from the American public and disable democracy to ram him through to his party’s nomination," Kennedy said. "Many Americans fear that the same DNC elites are about to rig the nominating process again to get a monumentally unpopular vice president to step into President Biden’s shoes."
The independent candidate went on to caution the Democratic Party against "anointing a candidate hand-picked by DNC elites." He urged the party to assess "neutral polling" numbers to determine who is best fit to beat former President Donald Trump in November.
"The delegates should then select a nominee based on this information," Kennedy said.
"If they had done this to begin with, I would not have had to leave the Democratic Party," he concluded.

Would love to be a fly on the wall of both RFK jrs and Kamala Harris campaign…
True and it’s only because there is no opposition to stop them from doing whatever the hell they want.
A Harris-RFK ticket would be pretty solid from a left point of view.

I hope th anti-fa anti-semite river to the sea gang shows up too!!!
Basically he's running either way, so party bosses better come to him.
you know, the Puppetmeisters ruling over the DNC just might select RFKJr for POTUS (and then a famous attractive sports or movie figure for Veep). RFKs politics are pretty far leftist on most issues and he has the name recognition
just saying, let’s keep an eye open...the DNC has no visible salable candidates for either POTUS or Veep and the Puppetmeisters still would like to hang onto power
Yeah there’s almost a poetry to it
If Kamala becomes the nominee, it’s because the dems have already conceded the presidency with no path to the elusive 270 electoral votes.
She would be the patsy, the throw-away candidate.
If they bypass Kamala, there’s going to be lots of angry democrats for disrespecting the heir apparent, a woman, and a woman of color.
They don’t have anybody else anyway, except for Hillary, the most hated woman in politics who already lost to Trump once, and this time it would be a blowout.
They don’t have time to get this nomination process back on track.
Traditionally, whichever party is leading by Labor Day usually goes on to win the election.
Labor Day is 5 weeks away.
I think it’s over.
President Trump, 47th president of these United States.
The most wild political ride I’ve ever seen since I voted for Nixon in ‘72.
Quite literally unbelievable.
Does he know what the American Dream is? Me thinks not.
Hasn’t RFK jr realized yet that his opinions are inconsequential to everything? Just ask the democrats, they made it perfectly clear.
>snicker<
BTW, he’s a crackpot and a leftist nut... Don’t be fooled.
Gee, then they'd have a double up... Two candidates that nobody wants.
As Poso asks
Alex Soros thinks Humpala is the best and most qualified candidate the Cheatocrats have. What if he’s right?
And a drugs legalizer.
American Dream! Doesn’t he know how she got her start?
When are we all going to stop pretending
Why are we giving them any credibility
Why are we so reticent to accept winning
They have no one
Harris placed so poorly in her run for president that she dropped out having garnered nothing but 1% one percent in her own state of California
They had to drag her out of the Dems dei pile to appoint VP
They have no one. Trump will be in the White House or will be president from wherever he says he’ll run it from
Furthermore Dems do not vote. They appoint them they lie, cheat and steal
The kids around here say Trump won as soon as he looked over at Biden and said, “I have no idea what he just said”.
The CNNs think they hide that but the kids see it in memes on whatever they’re following. It’s badass and it’s funny.
